Startek, a global customer experience (CX) solutions provider, announced that it has entered into a partnership with Krisp, an AI-powered noise cancellation solutions provider built to enhance the experience of customers and contact center agents by canceling background noise, resulting in clear conversations.

Startek leverages human-centric CX design to enable brands to deliver world-class experiences by blending automated and live interactions. While digital solutions provide fast, 24/7 support, customers often prefer voice-based conversations in times of high emotional need. Leveraging noise and echo-canceling technology from Krisp will enable Startek to create stronger connections and further enhance the experience delivered to customers across the globe.

Krisp is an AI-powered solution that provides contact center agents and customer experience teams with bi-directional background noise cancellation, voice cancellation and echo cancellation technology that detects and eliminates unwanted noise, leaving only crystal-clear HD audio during every agent-customer call.

Krisp’s solution filters out background noises such as pets or children crying as well as the noise of a busy contact center. By fully equipping agents to block out these noises, they can be confident that the customer can hear them clearly regardless of whether they work in-center or in a home environment.

“Krisp’s AI-powered technology was specifically designed to enhance both the customer and agent experience,” said Davit Baghdasaryan, CEO at Krisp. “As the only bi-directional noise cancellation solution in the market today, Krisp expertly removes background noise and maintains crystal-clear voice quality for both ends of the line. This results in happier customers, improved CSAT scores and a significant boost in agent productivity and confidence—whether they’re working from home or on-site.”

As part of this strategic partnership, Startek will combine its insights into the process of world-class, human-centered CX delivery with the technical ability of the Krisp technology to further the development of AI in voice-based CX delivery.
